as far as i know there are no limitations on the xa other than aftertouch control...

JC, the v6 without the x is smokin. I can't wait to get this one out with the other kids at our next blues jam. I still aint worked out all the functions perfectly yet but I am coming along. The dbeam leslie thing is tricky but way 2KO. I am enjoying the organ sound on my fantom finally. Thanks ever so much for your dedication to your project. I am overly impressed I must say.

yes.. all you have to do is record the control change parameters at the settings that you need

leslie speed is controlled by modulation 0 is slow 127 is fast
distortion level is controlled by an assignable knob on part 5 I beleive.

I will release a new blank preset for you to tweak with full instructions in a few days.

it is fairly simple but if you do need some presets made I can make them for you fairly quickly for 2 for 5 bucks. it can save some headache... if you dont wanna get bogged down in the details of the control change and the sysex messages

JC,

Is this organ patch like a performance? if so, how many tracks does it occupy(for the organ, that is)?



---------------------------------------------------------------
If at first you dont suceed, then skydiving is definitively not for you.

the performance occupies 6 parts and is primarily a solo instrument for performance or recording

I am sure that it can be sequenced but would probably be difficult to do .. i think lazyboy is working on that..

the entire performance is managed by midi control change messages and so you cannot combine the channels all to one.. and get any thing reasonable ... for sequenced play i would use multisamples of the performance...

the primary purpose of this emulator is so that you can have all the options of a hammond B3 for performance play.

For those who have yet to try out this emulator, I think it is very true and authentic. It now provides us with real-time drawbar contol, percussion, and all the B3 functions found in other emulators as well as the real thing, features that were missing in the Fantom until now. It repairs an obvious void in Roland's thinking and I like many others was dissappointed with the stock organ sounds of the Fantom. This fills the void nicely.

I have enjoyed using it and Jason's support has been superb.

I think it is worth the money and the effort to learn how to us it if you're into B3 sounds.

I was aking about screen shots due to the fact that number 1) I don't know much about the product, I just read about it here a few days ago, an djust visited his web site, and 2) because I thought that therre might be some Fantom screen shots with this baby running, so that I could see wether or not there were any draw bar graphics like they have on the new G-70.

Please feel free to correct me. I thought that this was some type of software that could be downloaded to the Fantom, and that it would allow the Fantom a killer B3 imitation.

If not, and I assume based on your comment that I'm misunderstand ing how this thing works, than please help me understand. I have not picked up my Fantom quite yet, and so I am most likely missing how this actually works with the Fantom. Is it an SRX type of card? could that be it?

Thanks, and plese forgive my ignorance

Sorry was not trying to be offensive.

Initially you could think its like a software synth on a computer. I did too. But its not. In a simple way its some clever programming of sysexclusive messages and RPS done by a very clever guy and saved as a song file (.SVQ) Sounds very authentic by the way.

I'm very interested in this. I am still hoping to pick up a new Fantom with in the next 30 to 90 days (depends on the budget), and was considering picking up the VK module as well, but this sounds like a lot more affordable option.

Thanks for the reply.
